      1). Create a new freestyle job and run it once.
      2). Edit the build description for the first run of the job to contain the following (excluding the quotes):
      "Line1<br>Line2<br>"
      3). The build description in the sidebar will look like "Line1Line2" when it should look like:
      Line1
      Line2
